Hi, I wrote a post the other day, but it never showed up. Anyway, I had my first appt. with Dr. Hodges in Springfield yesterday. I'm very excited. He's a great guy and I'm ready to do this thing. I've been lurking on the boards for a year. What a gift. Looking forward to participating. Tracey Bateman

Hi Tracey nice to meet you. I have been lurking on this board and the main board for a while now. I plan on seeing Dr. Hargroder in Joplin in March. I can't wait. Good luck and congrats for going through this life changing event! Annie 295 Sarcoxie MO

Welcome to the board. This is a great place to share your battles and victory's. Also there are some awesome people here that are loaded with knowledge about WLS. I look forward to following your progress. Wayne

I am a 6 day post-op patient of Dr. Hodges. Let me tell you he is wonderful. He did a great job with me. NO problems, surgery went very well and I feel really good. Come to the support group meetings and you will hear more good stuff. Any questions, feel free to ask me. Barb

Hey Everyone! Thanks so much for responding to my post! Barbara, I'll be following your success over the next couple of months! I'm glad to hear you're doing so well. Tracey
